It would awesome if we can also do E&C on code that contains LINQ.statements.

Make Edit and Continue work more globally · Jul 14, 2011 ·

Edit and Continue has always been a staple of Visual Studio development; it's one of the most important features that make it better than other IDEs. In 2002, Visual Studio .Net came out, and didn't have Edit and Continue, which made it very hard to use. In 2003, the new version had Edit and Continue and I was jubilant.

But since then Edit and Continue has fallen behind on times. It doesn't work on 64 bit processes; it doesn't work on methods with iterators or lambdas (and almost all important methods have lambdas these days); it doesn't work on asp.net projects unless you tick a box on each and every project.

I suggest that Edit and Continue is a major feature and should be treated as such:
- Make "Enable Edit and Continue" on by default on web projects.
- Enable edit and continue for lambda or iterator changes; that might mean that you even have to allow edit and continue to add new methods, but that should be possible using light-weight code generation.
- Allow edit and continue to add/remove methods or change their signatures, and even add new types.
- Allow edit and continue to change constants.

In short, make the development cycle more streamlined so we don't have to stop/compile/restart our project so often.

Hello guys!
i am using VS community 2015
i already enabled the "enable edit and continue"
but yet when i go to my project/properties/WEB - Debuggers i don't find "enable edit and continue" checkbox beside "ASP.NET" and other stuff....
please i need your help...
a while ago i used to have it, but since i formated my laptop and install a fresh copy of VS i lost the checkbox like for permenent

We used to use Edit and Continue intensively when implementing enhancements and fixing bugs as it reduced the time taken to complete the task. It was useful because in many instances it would take a few minutes to start the application and get to the point where a change was required - Edit and Continue allowed us to make the change in 'on the fly' rather than having to continuously stop the application, recompile and then take several minutes to get back to the same place. We have now switched to a 64-bit development environment as our development machines are 64-bit and most of our customers are using our 64-bit installers on 64-bit operating systems. Unfortunately, development time has increased since this change solely due to the lack of Edit and Continue. Please implement it for 64 bit!

It often takes quite a while to build and configure an application then work through all the steps to get to the exact conditions for debugging. Often using 32 bit is not an option. To have to restart this whole process instead of being able to EnC takes may take significant time. Definitely a critical feature in our group!
